Just terrible

Rating: 1/10 (27 July 2013)

This is the worst movie I have seen in a long time. Sure it has crazy creatures battling it out in the oceans which is just fine with me but so many elements just let the movie down. It could have been so much more.
Why did the drivers of the Jaegers need to actually be in the Jaeger at all? and why are the controls linked to massive mechanical devices, surely this would be electronic. And the head is fired onto the Jaeger via some massively complicated lift type procedure? Yet they can clearly just get out the head when needed?
It took 8 days of tanks and planes to take down a Kaiji but one shot into the eye from an auzi clearly causes it some distress? ONE SHOT?
The oceans are about 4 stories deep, which seems to change or the size of the Jaegers adjusts during the movie.
What's with every bit of steel needing to be rusty except for Ron Perlman's shoes? and massive bulkhead doors being used for the living compartments.
The acting, sooooo bad.
Let's send the helicopters to go and pick-up the two survivors, but lets send 20 helicopters, that makes much more sense, especially since this is a military program that has been shut down so ready access to dozens of helicopters becomes easier.
They can build Jaegers with some sort of amazing sword device that comes out of nowhere but forget to tell the drivers?
Charlie and the professor, just random cast choices there!
It's set in the future, some things are hi-tech others are retro rusty junk, it doesn't make any sense.
There's just so much more. How this movie gets a 7.8 is beyond me. Don't waste you life and avoid at all costs.
